In order to effectively reduce the inertial force of the structure and meet the maximum comfort requirements of the user population, TMD technology has a bright future in the field of national construction engineering in Ethiopia.

[0004] At present, in order to optimize the performance of the damper so that it can effectively reduce the structural vibration at a specific frequency, the device will adjust the mass block. There are currently two commonly used adjustment methods:

[0005] One is to remove an existing mass block and replace it with a block of different mass, and the other is to add or remove pieces of mass (such as metal pieces) to change the total mass.

[0006] Since the mass blocks are fixed in series by bolts, the bolts need to be disassembled regardless of the method, and the replacement efficiency is low. Utility Model Content

[0013] A group of mass blocks is arranged between two adjacent guide rods, and the number of mass blocks in the group is N;

[0014] A notch is provided in the mass block, inner slide grooves are provided on both sides of the notch, at least one threaded rod is provided in the notch, and the upper end of the threaded rod is detachably connected to the sliding seat;
